Ou0nC ching ThirAt.

Nearly a hundred years ago, DR..
Lind suggested to Captain Kennedy
that thirst might be quenched by dip
ping the clothing in salt water and
putting it on without wringing. Sub
scquently the captain, when cast away,
had an opportunity of making the cx-
pertinent: With great difficulty he
succeeded in persuading part of the
men to follow his example, and they
all survived, while the four who re-
fused and drank salt water became de-
llrious and died. In addition to put
ting on the clothes while wet night
and morning, they may be wetied
While on, two or three times during
the day; Captain Kennedy goes on to
say: "After these operations we
uniformly found that the violent
thirst went off, and the parchcd
tongue was cured in few minutes
after bathing aud washing our clothes,
while we found ourselves as mnch re-
ireshed as il we had received some
actual nourshment." The bare posi-
6ility of the truth of the statement
makes 1t Il humanity for any paper to
give it wide publicity, since there
are not many readers in any hundred

That has been said as to the destruc.
ton OF this little bird that we invited
over from England few years ago to
share in the freedom and blessings of
this great Republic, we do not see any
dIminution in the blessings which our
people enjoy. We have bigger crops
OF fruits and berries, and of everything
that is good, than we had before, and
seem to sustain the intliction remark
ably well. We do not believe the
